On this India Today special report, Rajdeep Sardesai leads a panel discussion on the changing political and demographic landscape of Mumbai following recent exit poll data. The discussion features author Dhaval Kulkarni, political analyst Rajat Sethi, and Dr. Hashmi, focusing on the challenges faced by the Shiv Sena (UBT) led by Uddhav Thackeray. Rajdeep Sardesai notes, ‘The shift, the erosion of that Marathi vote on one side, the rise of the North Indian vote has changed Mumbai’s demographics.’ The panel explores how the BJP-led alliance is making inroads into traditional Marathi pockets while consolidating the North Indian vote. Dhaval Kulkarni highlights that Marathi speakers in Mumbai are shrinking according to census data, while Rajat Sethi critiques the ‘crisis of ideology’ within the Thackeray camp. The programme examines whether the ‘Thackeray brand’ is losing resonance in a city where linguistic identities are being reshaped by migration and corporate-style political campaigning.
